The rifle features hooded beaded blade front and single leaf flip up rear sights on the barrel which has been magna ported and rechambered to 30-06 Ackley Improved. All metal surfaces on the rifle display a satin rust blued finish with the standard Safari Grade engraving on the trigger guard and floorplate hand cut and an engine turned bolt and follower.
